Abstract (en)

[origin: EP4083223A1] [Problem] Provided is a method for detecting of an autofluorescence Liquid Biopsy of Methylated Fragmented DNA (fragmented nucleosome) released into the blood by cell apoptosis as a disease-related substance[Solution] The inventive method comprises a) a step of capturing the fragmented DNA (fragmented nucleosome) in the analyte as a disease-related substance onto the plasmonic metal meso-crystals ; b) a step of irradiating the captured fragmented DNA (fragmented nucleosome) on the plasmonic metal meso-crystal with excitation light to enhance the autofluorescence by the surface plasmon enhancing effect, and acquiring a fluorescent colony image via a filter in a longer wavelength range than the excitation light filter; c) a step of adopting a pixel that exhibits a brightness greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value of said fluorescent colony image; d) calculating a ratio of a total area value of pixels greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value of a different two-wavelength region of the adopted measurement region.
